Dive into tales of mythical beasts and their legendary treasures, where brave knights, cunning thieves, curious scholars, and daring adventurers all seek the glittering riches fiercely guarded by dragons. Or it is something much goofier.

Bear Claw is a writer and artist who likes fantasy, horror, and cartoon related stuff. He likes drawing and writing with a fantastical and dark bend to it.

Ryan always enjoyed reading comics and copying the images, from Beano to the Real Ghostbusters to the Punisher. He joined a charity art group a few years ago which really got him back in to putting pen to paper. Now he is here at The Comic Jam and is getting to produce some great comics with other creatives.

Kevin D. Lintz is a comic book letterer, writer, and editor. He learned his skills in a Comics Experience class and honed them on the mean streets of his all-ages comic book, Team SLUG. He startles his family by making sound effect noises out loud to try and translate them into written words. He has even watched “Helvetica”, the full-length feature movie about the font Helvetica. https://lintzlettering.com/

Whether it’s novels, comics, or video games, C.J. Wilson loves telling character-focused tales that try for poignancy and depth… or at least for entertainment. He is currently pitching one novel, finishing another, and working as a lead narrative designer for a small game development project while penning comics. When he’s not writing or reading, you can find him gaming, cooking, hiking, traveling, or out at a show somewhere. He lives in Brooklyn, New York. He’s always open to new projects and loves talking writing, so feel free to reach out! http://cjwilsonstories.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/connor-d-johnson/
